First Bee!

in #photography8 years ago (edited)

Well, not the first bee ever, but the first bee I have seen this year. It was sitting on winter aconite (Eranthis hyemalis) and it looks like a European honey bee (Apis mellifera) to me:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 300mm, ISO200, f5.6, 1/160s

I was going to wait for more of them to show up, but it started clouding over:


Olympus Stylus 1s, 50mm, ISO100, f5.6, 1/400s

Yes it did, look closer.

Thanks for watching!

very amazing, I do not know how you are patient to get a photo like that, photographing a bee is very difficult, and also contains the risk, good job @ocrdu

Thanks. This was attempt number five, the first four are just photos of a bee's bum. Little risk though; these bees aren't aggressive at all.

wow nice photography

keep it on
